Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 65 Rumors, public grievances

When Chang'an was in the middle of the court meeting, a piece of news spread in Chang'an. It was only in a small area at first, but not long after, it spread throughout Chang'an.

"I heard that Mrs. Changping County has stolen someone."

"It's more than just stealing people. It is said that even the Duke of Changping doesn't take it seriously."

"How is this possible? Did Duke Changping know about this?"

"Don't forget that the new wife, Lord Changping, is from the Li family of Zhao County."

"What new lady, does this Duke of Changping have any old lady?"

The words sounded one after another, and instantly attracted the attention of passers-by, with a hint of interest on their faces.

You have to know where you can hear such explosive news, and this Zhang Liang is really not an unknown person.

In particular, the previous Lingyan Pavilion pushed Zhang Liang's reputation even more, and the reason was naturally because some of the names were not worthy of the name.

It's just that I didn't expect how long it had passed, and another piece of news about Zhang Liang broke out, and it was still so eye-catching.

Even if people don't pay attention to it, everyone from noble children to common people can't help but secretly remember it when they hear this secret.

As for how it is possible to ask them to keep it secret, the news was revealed in a blink of an eye.

Now all the restaurants and teahouses in Chang'an are discussing this topic, and they can't help talking about it, and even the stealing of the wife of the Duke of Changping caused the Duke of Changping to abandon his wife.

This action caused countless people to scold him even more. It can be said that Zhang Liang has already become notorious in Chang'an.

At this time, on the teahouse of Shu's house in Chang'an, there was a smile in Shu An's eyes, listening to the discussion about Zhang Liang in the teahouse, the smile on his face grew stronger.

All these schemes came from his hands. If there is nothing that people don't care about in this era, it is only reputation.

Even Li Shimin is determined to be a wise king in order to wash away his infamy of Xuanwu Gate, let alone Zhang Liang.

It would be fine if Zhang Liang was a saint, but the point is that this Zhang Liang has a lot of history, and Kuanghu collected enough information in just a few days.

It can be said that even Shu An knew that Zhang Liang had a bad reputation in history, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

Abandoning the wife of the chaff can be said to be the Chen Shimei of this era. Of course, Chen Shimei has not yet been born in this era.

Zhang Liang did not remain famous forever like Chen Shimei, which is mainly because the Tang Dynasty was more open.

As for the cheating of his chess piece, he is even more difficult to comment. This era advocates women's chastity, but for cheating, as long as no one files a complaint, the government will not pursue it.

Even if someone files a complaint, according to Tang law, the sentence is only one and a half years in prison, which is not too serious. Because of this, there are even jokes about being pregnant in a dream.

As for "soaking pig cages", it was only a thing in the Song Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty was the most open dynasty, and of course it can be said to be absurd.

Perhaps because of the same origin, there are many famous green hat kings in this era, and Zhang Liang is just one of them.

Of course, Zhang Liang was considered an inconspicuous one, and perhaps because his wife was born with five surnames and seven Wangs, he dared not speak out even if he was angry.

"After all, Zhang Liang is still a person who values ​​interests."

Shu An couldn't help thinking silently, Zhang Liang would not have tolerated it if he hadn't valued the connection with the powerful family behind Li.

He even adopted that lover as an adopted son, even Shu An couldn't help being stunned for a long time when he saw the news.

Even he didn't understand Zhang Liang's thoughts, but he thought that in this era, the aristocratic family had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and behind them was the power to influence the court.

Even Zhang Liang, the county magistrate, also wants to help, unless he has no ambitions, but how is this possible.

What's more, Zhang Liang is only a county prince, not a state prince, and he is overwhelmed by many people, so how can he not yearn for it in his heart.

Of course, if the matter had not been exposed, Zhang Liang would naturally be able to sit firmly on Diaoyutai, but it was a pity that he was too utilitarian to use him as a stepping stone.

Chang'an's rumors about Zhang Liang are still unclear, but Zhang Liang's life is not easy these days, because from time to time someone comes to impeach him.

I don't know who revealed what happened on the high platform that day, which led to more people playing themselves.

Even Zhang Liang has some small regrets in his heart. Of course, this trace of regret is only short-lived. It just makes him hate this group of literati even more.

In the end, he underestimated the influence of this Duke Anxuan, and he couldn't help feeling resentful in his heart.

There are some people who never reflect on their own troubles first, and they are undoubtedly Zhang Liang's kind of people, but what he doesn't know is that Shu An has not forgotten his plan.

Above Wude Hall, under the influence of the past few days, Zhang Liang shrank his head and behaved like a man, as if he was afraid that others would find him.

In the face of the court council, no matter what the matter is, Zhang Liang does not express any opinions, as if there is no such person.

It's just that Zhang Liang wanted to avoid the turmoil for a while before making plans, but Li Junxian hurried in from the Wude Hall as if there was something important.

All of a sudden, the discussion in the Hall of Martial Virtue fell silent, but Li Shimin couldn't help but feel nervous, knowing that Baiqi would not disturb the court if there was no important matter.

Then something serious must have happened, such as some urgent military situation, the same is true for Changsun Wuji and others, they looked at each other and didn't know what happened.

"Meet Your Majesty, there are changes in Chang'an, and there are people's grievances."

Li Junxian hurriedly saluted and said, with a hint of inexplicable emotion in his words.

"What, Chang'an public grievances?"

Li Shimin was stunned and said, even he didn't expect such a thing.

However, his face immediately became serious. You must know that the word "public grievances" is not something you say casually, especially if it is not resolved, it may cause even greater changes.

However, what puzzled Li Shimin the most was that it would be fine if public grievances occurred in other places, but this Chang'an was under the emperor's feet.

How could the people suddenly have public grievances when they have always lived and worked in peace and contentment, especially since no natural disasters occurred.

Could it be because of Chang'an Migui? In the end, Li Shimin only thought of this possibility. Only this kind of explanation can arouse public resentment. Thinking of this, his anger towards the family has increased.

"I don't know if General Li knows the reason for this public grievance?"

Changsun Wuji, who stood at the head of civil servants, couldn't help asking this question for His Majesty and all the officials present.

"Your Majesty, it is said that the cause of public grievances in Chang'an this time comes from Duke Changping."

Li Junxian seemed to have some hesitant voices, and when the voice fell, everyone present was stunned.
